This! Nothing about how the Blues have played or their team makeup suggests that the streak was anything but just a hot run. They hadn't even won 3 straight prior to the break.
Mid and even bad teams have crazy runs all thd time. Anyone remember the 10 game streak the 16-17 flames had under Gulutzan of all coaches? Rotating Elliot and Johnson as goalies... Yeah that wasn't a good team. They got hot, got in, and got smoked by the ducks (not to mention Elliot crapping the bed that series).
Not saying what the blues did isn't significant, because it is. But no more so than Calgary being as close as they are because of a hot goalie.
I was 100% expecting a skid after their run. Now whether that can extend to 4 games remains to be seen. But 3 of their last 4, yeah i think that's a good possibility.
